Unable to find ProjectName.gwt.xml on your classpath

Answer 1

I found that Davek804's comment helped me: I simply deleted the debug configuration (Run=>Debug Configuration=>right click and deleted project will run

Answer 2

It turns out that when you debug some GWT project as Web Applications, Eclipse does not append the module name (i.e. the gwt.xml file) to the list of arguments. I tried adding it manually, but forgot to add the complete package name that houses the gwt.xml file. The module should have been referred to as com.company.project.Project.gwt.xml, not just Project.gwt.xml.

Answer 3

Try going to Run -> Run Configurations in the menu and then select the Classpath tab and add the missing project.
